Memories

The broom sweeps
Into the corners
Herding the dust
Catching the cobwebs
All the dirt
Now gathered
Is hidden again
Under the rug

And we all know how futile brooms and rugs can be yes? Cause the rugs get kicked, and the dust seeps out and...

it's all inescapable

Nice extended metaphor here, Ron...

The wind shifts like this:
Like a human without illusions...
This is how the wind shifts:
Like a human, heavy and heavy,
Who does not care.

The dirt may be hidden, but the cob webs always come back. Can't hide the cobwebs under the rug.

This was great. Short but sweet!
A wonderful read!

I can't remember what I was going to say, oh yeah, nicely done   There are always those thoughts that we wish would just go, but Severn's right, they don't.
